- In today's travel vlog, we found a hidden spot in the busiest hiking trail in Canada. Joffre Lakes is the most instagramable and most beautiful hike in BC that's relatively easy to access compared to other alpine lakes in the region. This popular hike is located just north of Pemberton in Joffre Lakes Provincial Park, 2 hours away from Vancouver.
We started our hike just a few steps from the parking lot where we reached the turquoise blue glacier lake which is the first of the three lakes. The view is so amazing and the glacier can already be seen from this viewpoint especially on a sunny day. The hiking trail passes all three turquoise glacier-fed lakes with gorgeous views along the way making this a busy and well-traveled trail during summer. After a few hours of an uphill climb, we have reached the Upper Lake, with amazing scenery at the top and an up close view of the Matier Glacier close to the campsite for those wanting to spend the night. This is probably one of the best hikes we have ever done, tiring but totally worth it!

We cannot believe we have lived in British Columbia for a few years now and have not done this hike! This is a staple when coming to BC. You have to hike Joffre Lakes!💯 And we'll show you guys how to do it😉
Yeah guys, we saw you up there at Joffre Lake. 👍😂
Haha met a few of you guys on the trail. Hope we managed to say hi to you, did we?😅
Dear Max, I have been wishing to hike this for years, but need to have an experienced hiker to do it with. Those steps to Middle Lake, I would not be able to make it without you pulling me up, like you did with Nat.
A good video showing in detail the whole journey from Lower, Middle to Upper Lakes. It is one I have been looking for. Great job 👍
Glad you appreciate the video!😊 It was honestly one of the best hikes we’ve done here in BC. And it was nice that we were able to document the experience✨
Amazing shots of the lakes and the nature. It’s so good that you did that extra effort to go there.
Thanks Rahat! We didn’t think we had enough energy within us tbh💯 But thankful we got it done ✅
So excited to see you guys soon! And pumped to do this hike!! 💕
Woohoo! You guy will love it!💯❤️✨
Amazing video Nat and Max! Those lakes look incredible.
Thanks Chris! The hike was definitely worth it!❤️
Wow this hike is gorgeous! 😊 I've actually not heard of this place! Going on the list! Max's face at the end 😂
Woohoo for the next long weekend getaway!🙌 Haha she wasn’t too happy🤣
You guys make the best videos of BC!!
Aw thanks Tim!😊❤️❤️❤️
Amazing vid! Very nice view! Great job in finding the right spot for lunch, hahaha
Thanks Jennelyn!🙏 It was tough but we were able to push through😊
Amazing hike! I love the video and the sushi idea!
Knowing we can eat the sushi at the end kept us going😂
Thank for your video , great work!👍
Thanks! Can’t wait to go back😊❤️
Absolutely beautiful👍👍👍an interesting and stunning looking place, thanks for the videos😄,bestregards Up'n'Down-Traveling
Thanks for watching Up’n’Down-Traveling!❤️😊
Sure is beautiful out there! Thanks for sharing this 🙌
Tried our best to capture it but its so much better in person😊❤️ Thanks for watching!
@@NatandMax I know what you mean! We really enjoy coming our adventures also. Awesome job guys!
We’re cut from the same cloth😊❤️ Thanks!
Great Vid. need to go on a hike next time im in BC. which is next month, hopefully. hahah .
Yas!! Let us know when you’re in town😊🙌
Good video! Just curious, where did you guys get the triangle sushi? Good idea to bring them for lunch
Thank you! We bought it from a Japanese grocery store in Richmond(sorry can’t recall the name🥲) but you can also find these in H Marts and T&Ts🙂
Thank you! We are going there next week. This video is really helpful
Beautiful
It was amazing✨
Lol, When you pulled out the sushi with salmon I was totally thinking bear bait lol! Just saw the very last outtake where Nat proposed the the question as to who the bear will chase first 🤣 mean! Lol. And I was going to say what a good man you are and how much you watch out for Max!! 😂 Bad boy!! In all seriousness, I am glad you both are okay and survived it with no encounters and am grateful you pushed another 30mins so you could give us such a secluded, one of a kind experience, beyond the gram 🤗🙏🏽. I am curious how tall you are Max? I am only 5’2” and worry about how steep those steps were! They should install a pull rope to help us little ones 😁. I would actually love to see some day or overnight spa tours of BC mixed in with the physical activity! You definitely earned it!!
Auntie K!!🤣 We didn’t really thought of the salmon being bear bait until you brought it up now😂 Thankfully we didn’t encounter one😁
I’m 5’3” and the steps were so steep!😂 I found myself trying to sit on the stairs and boulders(with a little push from Nat) just to get up there😅
We had so much fun and we’re sure you’ll enjoy it too when you get a chance❤️❤️❤️
Oh~~~we were at the same place! I loved it so much as well:)😄👍💥
Nice! When did you guys go? Hopefully you guys got a nice sunny day too😊☀️
@@NatandMax Early Aug! You can check my video out if you are available:)
We went mid Aug. Yes will checkout your video too😊❤️
wow npkgandang tanawin
Thank you po😊
You can actually hike to the Glacier. It’s pretty rough. I got halfway up and decided to turn around. Joffre Lakes is one of my favorite hikes I’ve ever done
Kudos to you for even making it up half way! We saw people climbing the glacier too when we did the hike and were pretty impressed. We’re someone likely to stay on the safe side though😄
@@NatandMax It was a rough go. I wasn't wearing my boots and I was slipping on the way up and running out of time.
I have one complaint- I wish you guys uploaded more than once a week! 😂 Thanks for another great vid!
Haha we appreciate the demand!😂 Hoping we get more efficient on editing so we can pump out more content❤️
Great video.. however, for anyone new looking to hike this trail, it is a very safe and 'busy' trail (compared to so many others)). Also, veryyyyy popular and beautiful. Almost everyone who has joined a hiking group on fbook knows about the lake and hiked it at some point. It is soooo popular that the day passes in summer (free) are sold out very fast. Never at any point u have to worry about not finding ur way to the lake for u will literally see a train of people on the way especially if u r going in summer. I have seen the beginners doing it- provided u take multiple breaks... the elevation is steep at times but alllll my friends new to hiking or even new to the country ended up finishing the hike easily. Many people stop at lake 2 which is equally rewarding
Thanks for the additional information Navdeep! 😊
What date and day was your hike? Usually I read that hikers tried to arrive at the car park before 7am !
This was around September during a weekend🙂 That’s true! The earlier the better because parking is limited. I think theres also a reservation system nowadays to limit the people coming to the park so you might have a better experience even if you come later😊
Hey guys, just wondering, when approx did you guys go? Mid August? and if so was it a weekend? I'm planning to head there soon! Thanks for this video, it really helps when planning and knowing what to expect ahead!
Hi!👋 Yes it was a weekend, on a Saturday on the last week of August😊 Feel free to ask us if you have any questions about the hike and we’ll try our best to answer them😊
Hi!! Is there any town near by to sleep at night or the closest destination is vancouver? thanks!
Hi Paula! Pemberton BC is the closest town to Joffre Lakes🙂
Is it advisable to have Bear spray with you while hiking on this trail
Stay safe and stay blessed
Hi Haque! Although its unlikely to see bears because of how busy the trail is, we would say yes, always take any safety measure with you on any hikes if you have them😊
How long you two have been doing hiking
We do it occasionally😅
